1And God said unto Jacob, Arise, go up to Beth-el,
and dwell there: and make there an altar unto God, who appeared unto
thee when thou fleddest from the face of Esau thy brother. 2Then Jacob said unto his household, and to all that were with him,
Put away the foreign gods that are among you, and purify yourselves,
and change your garments: 3and let us arise, and go up
to Beth-el; and I will make there an altar unto God, who answered me
in the day of my distress, and was with me in the way which I went.
4And they gave unto Jacob all the foreign gods which
were in their hand, and the rings which were in their ears; and
Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem. 5And
they journeyed: and a terror of God was upon the cities that were
round about them, and they did not pursue after the sons of Jacob.
6So Jacob came to Luz, which is in the land of Canaan
(the same is Beth-el), he and all the people that were with him.
7And he built there an altar, and called the place
El-beth-el; because there God was revealed unto him, when he fled
from the face of his brother. 8And Deborah Rebekah's
nurse died, and she was buried below Beth-el under the oak: and the
name of it was called Allon-bacuth.

9And God appeared
unto Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him.
10And God said unto him, Thy name is Jacob: thy name
shall not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name:
and he called his name Israel. 11And God said unto him,
I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company
of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins;
12and the land which I gave unto Abraham and Isaac, to
thee I will give it, and to thy seed after thee will I give the
land. 13And God went up from him in the place where he
spake with him. 14And Jacob set up a pillar in the place
where he spake with him, a pillar of stone: and he poured out a
drink-offering thereon, and poured oil thereon. 15And
Jacob called the name of the place where God spake with him,
Beth-el.

16And they journeyed from Beth-el; and there
was still some distance to come to Ephrath: and Rachel travailed,
and she had hard labor. 17And it came to pass, when she
was in hard labor, that the midwife said unto her, Fear not; for now
thou shalt have another son. 18And it came to pass, as
her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name
Ben-oni: but his father called him Benjamin. 19And
Rachel died, and was buried in the way to Ephrath (the same is
Beth-lehem). 20And Jacob set up a pillar upon her grave:
the same is the Pillar of Rachel's grave unto this day. 21And Israel journeyed, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Eder.
22And it came to pass, while Israel dwelt in that land,
that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and
Israel heard of it.

Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: 23The sons of Leah: Reuben, Jacob's first-born, and Simeon, and Levi,
and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun; 24the sons of
Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin; 25and the sons of Bilhah,
Rachel's handmaid: Dan and Naphtali; 26and the sons of
Zilpah, Leah's handmaid: Gad and Asher: these are the sons of Jacob,
that were born to him in Paddan-aram. 27And Jacob came
unto Isaac his father to Mamre, to Kiriath-arba (the same is
Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac sojourned.

28And the
days of Isaac were a hundred and fourscore years. 29And
Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people,
old and full of days: and Esau and Jacob his sons buried him.

36 Genesis 36

1Now these are the generations of Esau (the same is
Edom). 2Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan:
Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter
of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3and
Basemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebaioth. 4And
Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Basemath bare Reuel; 5and
Oholibamah bare Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah: these are the sons of
Esau, that were born unto him in the land of Canaan. 6And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all
the souls of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all
his possessions, which he had gather in the land of Canaan; and went
into a land away from his brother Jacob. 7For their
substance was too great for them to dwell together; and the land of
their sojournings could not bear them because of their cattle.
8And Esau dwelt in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.

9And
these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in
mount Seir: 10these are the names of Esau's sons:
Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath
the wife of Esau. 11And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman,
Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz. 12And Timna was
concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek:
these are the sons of Adah, Esau's wife. 13And these are
the sons of Reuel: Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these
were the sons of Basemath, Esau's wife. 14And these were
the sons of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon,
Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jalam, and Korah.

15These are the chiefs of the sons of Esau: the sons of
Eliphaz the first-born of Esau: chief Teman, chief Omar, chief
Zepho, chief Kenaz, 16chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief
Amalek: these are the chiefs that came of Eliphaz in the land of
Edom; these are the sons of Adah. 17And these are the
sons of Reuel, Esau's son: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah,
chief Mizzah: these are the chiefs that came of Reuel in the land of
Edom; these are the sons of Basemath, Esau's wife. 18And
these are the sons of Oholibamah, Esau's wife: chief Jeush, chief
Jalam, chief Korah: these are the chiefs that came of Oholibamah the
daughter of Anah, Esau's wife. 19These are the sons of
Esau, and these are their chiefs: the same is Edom.

20These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land:
Lotan and Shobal and Zibeon and Anah, 21and Dishon and
Ezer and Dishan: these are the chiefs that came of the Horites, the
children of Seir in the land of Edom. 22And the children
of Lotan were Hori and Heman. And Lotan's sister was Timna. 23And these are the children of Shobal: Alvan and Manahath and Ebal,
Shepho and Onam. 24And these are the children of Zibeon:
Aiah and Anah; this is Anah who found the hot springs in the
wilderness, as he fed the asses of Zibeon his father. 25And these are the children of Anah: Dishon and Oholibamah the
daughter of Anah. 26And these are the children of
Dishon: Hemdan and Eshban and Ithran and Cheran. 27These
are the children of Ezer: Bilhan and Zaavan and Akan. 28These are the children of Dishan: Uz and Aran. 29These
are the chiefs that came of the Horites: chief Lotan, chief Shobal,
chief Zibeon, chief Anah, 30chief Dishon, chief Ezer,
chief Dishan: these are the chiefs that came of the Horites,
according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

31And
these are the kings that reigned in the land of Edom, before there
reigned any king over the children of Israel. 32And Bela
the son of Beor reigned in Edom; and the name of his city was
Dinhabah. 33And Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of
Bozrah reigned in his stead. 34And Jobab died, and
Husham of the land of the Temanites reigned in his stead. 35And Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who smote Midian in the
field of Moab, reigned in his stead: and the name of his city was
Avith. 36And Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah reigned
in his stead. 37And Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth
by the River reigned in his stead. 38And Shaul died, and
Baal-hanan the son of Achbor reigned in his stead. 39And
Baal-hanan the son of Achbor died, and Hadar reigned in his stead:
and the name of his city was Pau; and his wife's name was Mehetabel,
the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Me-zahab.

40And
these are the names of the chiefs that came of Esau, according to
their families, after their places, by their names: chief Timna,
chief Alvah, chief Jetheth, 41chief Oholibamah, chief
Elah, chief Pinon, 42chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief
Mibzar, 43chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these are the
chiefs of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their
possession. This is Esau, the father of the Edomites.
